About
Hello, I’m John. I live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania USA. I guess you could say that I am the artistic type, with a dash of technology. I tend to write things and to take photographs. Sometimes I paint or draw — or build stuff, like this website and its ancestors.
I have been online since 1994 or so. I taught myself HTML and hand-coded my first online journal (this was before blogs) in 1997. I’ve been fiddling around with websites and such, since then. Some of my writing has been published: poems, science fiction and fantasy stories (I won an award in 1989 for one of those) and a bunch of dining and event reviews that I did when I was working for AOL/Digital City. A photograph of mine was published in a book about the “strange but true” things in North Carolina. That was fun.
I actually spend a fair amount of time thinking about life, science, art and what it means to be human. Go figure. I have been a vegetarian for over 20 years and work at Costco, in major sales.
Thank you for visiting with me.
